The schema is an object that defines and describes the property or properties of the component. The schema’s keys are the names of the property, and the schema’s values define the types and values of the property (in case of a multi-property component): Defining schema in your component AFRAME.reg...

Property types primarily define how the schema parses incoming data from the DOM for each property. The parsed data will then be available via the data property on the component's prototype. Below are A-Frame's built-in property types: Property TypeDescriptionDefault ValuearrayParses comma-separ...

A component’s members and methods can be accessed through the entity from the .components object. Look up the component from the entity’s map of components, and we’ll have access to the component’s internals. Consider this example component: AFRAME.registerComponent('foo', { init: function () { ...

Components can be attached to the scene as well as entities. A-Frame ships with a few components to configure the scene: ComponentDetailsembeddedRemove fullscreen styles from the canvas.fogAdd fog.keyboard-shortcutsToggle keyboard shortcuts.inspectorInject the A-Frame Inspector.statsToggle performa...

We place assets within <a-assets>, and we place <a-assets> within <a-scene>. Assets include: <a-asset-item> - Miscellaneous assets such as 3D models and materials <audio> - Sound files <img> - Image textures <video> - Video textures The scene won't...

We can set a timeout that when reached, the scene will begin rendering and entities will begin initializing regardless of whether all the assets have loaded. The default timeout is 3 seconds. To set a different timeout, we just pass in the number of milliseconds to the timeout attribute: If some...

Content fetched by <a-asset-item> will be returned as plain text. If we want to use a different response type such as arraybuffer, use <a-asset-item>'s response-type attribute: <a-asset-item response-type="arraybuffer" src="model.gltf"></a-asset-item> ...

Every element in A-Frame inherits from <a-node>, the AFRAME.ANode prototype. ANode controls load and initialization order. For an element to initialize (whether it be <a-assets>, <a-asset-item>, <a-scene>, or <a-entity>), its children must have already initialized. N...

As an introductory example, to define a 5-meter orbit on an entity about the Y-axis that takes 10 seconds, we can offset the position and animate the rotation. This animation starts with the initial rotation about the Y-axis of 0 degrees, and goes around 360 degrees. It’s defined with a duration of ...

A-Frame's animation system can animate different types of properties. vec3 Properties A-Frame has standard vec3 components (i.e., position, rotation, and scale). These components consist of three factors: X, Y, and Z. We can pass three space-delimited numbers to the from and to attributes just a...

Properties of a multi-property component will merge if defined by multiple mixins and/or the entity. For example: <a-scene> <a-assets> <a-mixin id="box" geometry="primitive: box"></a-mixin> <a-mixin id="tall" geometry="heigh...

One common use of variable-length argument lists is to implement functions that are a thin wrapper around the printf() family of functions. One such example is a set of error reporting functions. errmsg.h #ifndef ERRMSG_H_INCLUDED #define ERRMSG_H_INCLUDED #include <stdarg.h> #include...

using System; using System.IO; using System.IO.Compression; namespace ConsoleApplication1 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { string zipPath = @"c:\example\start.zip"; string extractPath = @"c:\example\extract...

We can register our own primitives (i.e., register an element) using AFRAME.registerPrimitive(name, definition). definition is a JavaScript object defining these properties: PropertyDescriptiondefaultComponentsObject specifying default components of the primitive. The keys are the components' nam...

my_var = 'bla'; api_key = 'key'; ...lots of code here... params = {"language": "en", my_var: api_key} If you are used to JavaScript, variable evaluation in Python dictionaries won't be what you expect it to be. This statement in JavaScript would result in the params object ...

Using a format string provides information about the expected number and type of the subsequent variadic arguments in such a way as to avoid the need for an explicit count argument or a terminator value. The example below shows a a function that wraps the standard printf() function, only allowing f...

You must use a ScriptManager control on a page to enable the following features of ASP.NET AJAX: 1. Client-script functionality of the Microsoft AJAX Library, and any custom script that you want to send to the browser. protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Page.ClientScr...

Ambient lights globally affect all entities in the scene. The color and intensity properties define ambient lights. Additionally, position, rotation, and scale have no effect on ambient lights. We recommend to have some form of ambient light such that shadowed areas are not fully black and to mimic...
